Massage & Body Work

Oil Massage
This is a technique especially good for relaxation and letting go of accumulated stress. Oil massage is a gentle and soothing form of massage that will make you feel more calm, relaxed and balanced.

Aroma Therapy Massage
Aroma Therapy is a gentle and relaxing massage that works not only on the physical body, but also on the energy body. A combination of high quality essential oils and their subtle energies help you to achieve calmness of thoughts and mind, opening of the heart, healing of the emotions or balancing and restoration.

Deep Tissue Massage
This is a very thorough technique that involves a lot of work on nodes and hard muscles. Long term stress, accidents or weaknesses can cause muscles to tense and form nodes. The deep tissue technique can be used to get rid of those nodes, all aches and any other uncomfortable feelings we experience. This is a strong technique that involves working not so much on the surface but more in the areas where the deep tissue is located.

Ayurvedic Oil Massage
Treat yourself with the luxurious experience of being drenched in the most healing oils you can imagine. Our Ayurvedic oils, imported from India, are infused with 33 different powerful medicinal and healing herbs from the sacred trees and flowers of India. During the massage the oils deeply penetrate your skin and allow the herbs to cleanse and detox your tissues. Your skin will become supple, soft and satiny. Your all over feeling will be one of relaxation and rejuvenation. A series of several treatments is recommended to achieve optimum results.

Thai Foot Massage
Thai Foot Massage is a massage of the lower legs and feet that involves hands on stretching and massage to “open” Sen (energy) Lines, along with the use of a stick to stimulate the reflex points on the feet which correspond to the internal organs of the body. Thai Foot Massage stimulates these points to promote general health and well-being.

Ayurvedic Head Massage
Massaging the head can do much to relieve the stress and tension that fill our day to day lives. The technique involves controlled caresses such as the spider walk, root pull, and comb, and focuses mainly on the face and scalp. It can also continue down the upper back, neck, shoulders and upper arms. The massage has a strong effect on the three higher chakras of the seven - mind, body and spirit. As the massage works on the shoulders and neck, the relief of tension is felt almost instantaneously. As well as easing headaches and stress, the conditions it can help are many. It helps deal with scalp and hair problems, aids localized blood and lymphatic circulation, relieves eye strain, boosts the immune system, relieves muscle tension, and helps restore joint movement.

Facial Treatment
At Monte Vista we use only the highest quality natural creams, lotions, and masks for our Facials. Mohini was trained as a Make Up Artist in France and since then has brought her experience here to help soothe and pamper our guests.

A facial treatment consists of 6 steps:

• Cleansing with Massage Cream
  
• Cleansing with our special Cleansing Foam
  
• Mild and gentle Scrub
  
• Toning
  
• Face Massage (lymph drainage)
  
• Herbal Mud Mask
  
• Protective Day Cream

Through enhanced blood circulation and deep purification the pores allow more oxygen into the cells and thereby rejuvenate your skin. Extensive Moisturizing combined with professional Massage renders it flexible, smooth and ageless.

Acupressure Facial
An acupressure facial is designed to eliminate stress. Our body is composed of a myriad of acupressure points. When deep finger pressure and specific intention is used on these points, physical and emotional healing can take place. The technique places you in a deeply relaxed state allowing an overall sense of lightness and wellbeing. Used in conjunction with a deep cleanse and three masks, the emphasis is placed on drawing out toxins and waste energy that may hold us back on physical, emotional and mental levels. To allow you to fall deeper into a meditative state, a scalp massage is included. Ideal when fasting, cleansing or simply wishing to feel more balanced.
